Frequently Asked Questions
To convert Celsius to Fahrenheit, use the formula: °F = (°C × 9/5) + 32. For example, 20°C is (20 × 9/5) + 32 = 68°F.
Celsius is commonly used in most countries worldwide, while Fahrenheit is primarily used in the United States. Recipes often specify temperatures based on their country of origin.
Our converter uses precise mathematical calculations to ensure accuracy to two decimal places, which is sufficient for cooking and weather applications.
Celsius sets water's freezing point at 0° and boiling point at 100°. Fahrenheit sets freezing at 32° and boiling at 212°. The scales increase at different rates.
Celsius and Fahrenheit are equal at -40 degrees. Both -40°C and -40°F represent the same temperature.
The United States, Cayman Islands, and Belize use Fahrenheit for weather reports due to historical reasons. Most other countries use Celsius.
